Gakuen Club

Oh............................... My.................................. Goodness. Well... Can we all say that the artwork looks really cute/good and colorful? Otherwise... Sigh. I normally go easy on VNs that aren't meant for Adults, but uh... There is only so much one can take. Like............. If you don't really think about anything at all....... This could be... Almost okay... Otherwise... [u]The MC:[/u] Do I even need to mention that she is completely and utterly freaking useless? No. But at least she has eyes! Her favorite phrases are: "I don't know what to do. How can I help you? I still couldn't do anything..." That's right. The MC NEVER does anything worthy in this game. At all. All the bois are on a far higher level than she will ever be and they always will take care of everything. Themselves. I have NO idea why they need her. Whatsoever. Whatever. [u]The Bois:[/u] -> [u]Wataru:[/u] I started off with this one... As I thought he was going to be either boring or whiny. Hah. I was overly wrong. He was actually... Pretty good. I liked his Route. I think he did far more than some *OTHER* Routes!!! So he... He is the only gets the full p…

English: I’ve played the game for about 70 minutes so far, including the prologue and up to Chapter 4 of Sakai. So far, the only real decision I was able to make was choosing which route to take. It feels more like reading a story rather than actually making meaningful choices, even though there were several moments where it felt like I should be able to choose something, but that turned out to be disappointing. The main character you play as often annoys me, and I really wish there were dialogue or reaction choices to respond differently. I wouldn’t recommend buying this game at full price. I got it on sale for €13.99. Since I kind of collect games like this, I’ll keep it and probably continue playing it at some point, but so far it feels repetitive and definitely not worth €27.99. If I didn’t collect games like this or hadn’t bought it on sale, I would have refunded it for the reasons mentioned above. Your decision. Correction: I’ve decided to refund the game after all. €13.99 is simply too much for a game where my own character ends up frustrating me instead of being enjoyable. I also don’t feel that urge to keep playing like I usually do with other visual novels. Deutsch: Ic…

Gakuen Club is an otome visual novel developed by OperaHouse Corporation and published by Dogenzaka Lab and D3PUBLISHER. Set within the prestigious Kirika Academy, the game follows a transfer student whose ordinary school life takes an unexpected turn after she becomes involved with a secret after-school club. What begins as a typical academy romance gradually unfolds into a story filled with hidden relationships, personal secrets, and emotional discoveries. While the premise contains elements of mystery, the heart of the experience remains firmly rooted in character-driven romance. The game's greatest strength lies in its cast of love interests. Each route introduces a different perspective on the academy and its secretive social circle, allowing players to build relationships with characters who possess distinct personalities, ambitions, and vulnerabilities. The writing places significant emphasis on emotional development, ensuring that each romantic path feels personal and rewarding. Rather than relying heavily on dramatic twists, the narrative focuses on the gradual growth of trust and affection between the protagonist and her chosen partner. Fans of traditional otome storytel…

Bought this game because of not-so-bad art. If you are a fan of hurt/comfort (aimed at male characters), you'll like it. The boys are all full freakin' problematic. There is no boy in this circle of romanceable characters that doesn't have a stick in their brain. You always have to be their psychologist, just to fix their problems. I don't wanna do that, I want real men fix MY problems! I love damsel in distress, but this game is all about bachelor in distress. Even senpais are full of problems, and not the math ones! And the plot is really, really strange. It has ALL the possibilities to make the game dark and disturbing. Look, there's a NIGHT CLUB and SCHOOLGIRLS and SCHOOLBOYS are working there AS SERVANTS, while EVERYTHING that could happen there STAYS IN SECRET FOREVER, and the GUESTS are RANDOM WEALTHY and INFLUENTIAL people. U damn sure something disturbing should happen in this place. But it won't, 'cause this game is stuck to the rating :\ However, it wasn't boring for me. Maybe because I waited for the moment when my girl falls ill or loses consciousness or something like that. Cause I was tired of caring about all these losers. As far as I hate some types of character…

It's so boring that I didn't even remember anything that stood out.

I don't know why this game has a special rating, it only has plain kisses, nothing explicit. It sure is expensive considering its length. Expect a little above 2 hours/full route. By the way, they're pretty unbalanced, some routes are around 1h30 while others may require more than 3. It gives an unpolished and rushed feeling to some LIs. Overall, I enjoyed the game, the art is beautiful and the voice acting is always a nice feature to have. Side characters voices are always the same but not distributed the same way over the different routes, and some of their voices were really offputting to me, they sounded unnaturally high-pitched as if strained. Even if he is the one that stands out the less at first, Saku's route is my favourite.
